Heya rellik
Congratulations on your purchase (getting jelaous here... )
I see you got same set of dado blades and table saw as me...
I still haven't used the dado set... let me know how it goes..
Also next time you go to carbatec might be a good idea to get a blade guard from their 10" Jet table saw range...
My original guard pretty much exploded on me as its wobblines was its undoing.. (was cutting 45 deg angle and it pretty much hit the blade and that was the end of it..) Never liked it (found it to be the worst part of the saw)
Got the Jet guard and all I had to do to fit it is grind off 10x5 mm piece of the bottom so the red cover can fit nicely and it was all good..
Best thing ever... Each side lifts independently.. easy to take off the guard while keeping the riving knife...
So definitely worth the look...
I've done following upgrades on it
New fence (carbatec) (original one was too flimsy and inaccurate )
Digital fence readout from woodworkprofessionals (0.01mm precission)
Blade guard..
Topped it up with incra mitre gauge...
Ps.
No connection with carbatec.. just happy user..

Yeah I have upgraded the fence as well... The old one was flimsy and unreliable for squareness .... I am looking into some more upgrades in the future.... I already have my first build request... End grain chopping board .... I will make it from maple and jarrah...
